I will try to help you guys out....
First, the free version of VNC using the java viewer requires 2 ports.
One is for the vnc protocol (default 5900) and one for the web
page/java client (default 5800).
You have two options, most likely.
1. Use the regular client, You dont need to "install" it, it can run
off of a cd rom or a usb key, etc....
If you do this, change "accept connections on port to 443 in the
vnc server options and forward 443 apropriatley. On the client type
in "IpOrDomain.org:443"
2. Using the java client you need to forward two ports here's what I would do:
Accept Connections on 443 (forward 443 on the router)
Serve Java on 80 (forward 80 on the router)
In your browser go to IpOrDomain.org, once you get the java
window make it say "IpOrDomain.org:443"
3. Ah yets there is also another option.... if you use vnc
enterprise you can have the java AND the protocol on the same port.
Check ouy vnc entrprise for more info.
Good Luck,
